This study aims to analyze the influence of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), intellectual capital, and leverage on firm value in technology sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. GCG is measured through three indicators: managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and the presence of an audit committee. Intellectual capital is measured using the Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC™) method, while leverage is measured using the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER). Firm value as the dependent variable is measured using the Tobin's Q ratio. This study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from annual reports and financial statements of companies accessed through the official IDX website and each company's website. A purposive sampling technique was used to determine the sample, and eight companies were obtained with a total of 32 observation data over a four-year period. The results show that leverage has a significant effect on firm value, indicating that appropriate and proportional debt structure management is a key factor in increasing the value of companies in the technology sector. Meanwhile, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, the presence of an audit committee, and intellectual capital did not show a significant effect on firm value. This suggests that, in the technology sector, external financing strategies play a greater role than internal company factors such as ownership structure and intangible assets. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for company management and investors in formulating financing policies and managing knowledge-based resources.  

This study aims to investigate the effects of liquidity, financial leverage, capital structure, and operating cash flow on financial performance, with financial distress serving as a mediating variable. The population comprises transportation and logistics companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023, totaling 37 companies. The sample includes 20 companies, with quarterly financial reports yielding 400 observations. Secondary data were employed, and purposive sampling was utilized for sample selection. The analysis was conducted using panel data analysis at a 5% significance level, facilitated by STATA Version 17 software. Mediation was tested utilizing the Sobel test with a critical value of 1.96. The results reveal that liquidity significantly impacts both financial distress and financial performance; financial leverage significantly affects both financial distress and financial performance; capital structure significantly influences financial distress but does not significantly affect financial performance; operating cash flow does not significantly impact financial distress but significantly affects financial performance. Collectively, liquidity, financial leverage, capital structure, and operating cash flow significantly influence financial distress. Furthermore, liquidity, financial leverage, capital structure, operating cash flow, and financial distress together have a significant effect on financial performance. Mediation analysis indicates that financial distress significantly mediates the relationships between liquidity, financial leverage, capital structure, and financial performance, whereas financial distress does not significantly mediate the effect of operating cash flow on financial performance. It is recommended that transportation and logistics companies listed on the IDX actively enhance liquidity, optimally manage leverage and capital structure, and strengthen operational cash flow management to minimize financial distress risk and sustain financial performance.

Using a quantitative approach and linear regression method, the study finds a positive and statistically significant relationship between life insurance premiums and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth. Additionally, the life insurance sector acts as a long-term funding provider that supports financial market stability through investments in financial instruments such as government bonds. These findings indicate that the life insurance industry not only offers financial protection for individuals but also serves as a key pillar of economic development and financial system resilience. The study recommends enhancing insurance inclusion, financial literacy, and strengthening regulation and corporate governance in life insurance companies to fully leverage their potential contribution to Indonesia’s economy

This study aims to analyze the development, effectiveness, challenges, and research gaps in the implementation of anti-corruption education globally during the 2015–2025 period. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework, the study systematically identified, evaluated, and synthesized 37 peer-reviewed articles indexed in the Scopus database. The findings indicate a significant increase in both academic publications and the implementation of anti-corruption education programs worldwide. These programs adopt diverse approaches, including curriculum integration, the use of digital media, and participatory learning strategies. Evidence of program effectiveness is reflected in behavioral changes and long-term social impacts reported in several studies. However, the review also reveals persistent challenges: cultural (social norms tolerant of corruption), structural (absence of national standards or policy frameworks), and technical (limited access to technological infrastructure). Furthermore, the research landscape shows notable gaps, such as the lack of longitudinal studies, minimal focus on vulnerable groups (e.g., children with disabilities), and underutilization of emerging tools like artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics. Future research is recommended to adopt interdisciplinary perspectives, develop context-based learning modules, and leverage advanced technologies to enhance engagement and scalability. Overall, the findings highlight the urgency of implementing holistic and adaptive strategies to strengthen the role of education in combating corruption at various levels of society.

This study aims to analyze the strategy of utilizing vacant spaces within airports to enhance non-aeronautical revenue through collaboration with Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Given the growing importance of non-aeronautical revenue sources in the aviation industry, this research focuses on how airports can optimize underutilized spaces for commercial purposes. The research method applied is library research, where relevant literature, journals, and previous studies are reviewed to gain insights into successful strategies and best practices. The findings of the study indicate that the development of commercial spaces, such as fast-food tenants, retail outlets, and photo booths, can significantly enhance the passenger experience by providing convenient services and entertainment. Additionally, these developments offer a sustainable alternative revenue stream for airports, diversifying income beyond traditional aeronautical activities. The research also explores the role of the Value Proposition Canvas business model to assess the alignment between the value offered by these services and the needs of passengers. By applying this model, the study emphasizes the importance of understanding customer expectations and ensuring that airport services meet these demands. The analysis further highlights that successful implementation of these strategies requires careful planning, including collaboration between airport management, MSMEs, local governments, and sponsors. Building strong partnerships and ensuring mutual benefit are critical for maximizing the non-aeronautical revenue potential. The study concludes by suggesting that airports can leverage vacant spaces more effectively to not only boost revenue but also improve the overall passenger experience, contributing to the long-term sustainability and growth of the airport sector.

Competition in the local culinary business is getting tougher as consumer behavior shifts, placing greater emphasis on product quality and social media recommendations. Nasi Uduk Pemuda, located in Doko Village, Kediri Regency, leverages brand trust, distinctive flavors, and promotions through social media influencers to drive consumer purchasing decisions. This study aims to analyze the influence of brand trust, flavors, and social media influencers on consumer purchasing decisions. The method used in this study is quantitative, with a survey of consumers who have purchased Nasi Uduk Pemuda products. The sample size was calculated using the Slovin formula. Data were analyzed using SPSS 29 through several tests, such as validity, reliability, classical assumptions, multiple linear regression, t-test, f-test, and coefficient of determination (R²). The t-test results indicate that brand trust and flavor have a significant positive influence on consumer purchasing decisions. On the other hand, the influence of social media influencers on purchasing decisions is positive, but not significant. The f-test shows that simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence purchasing decisions, with an R² value of 0.669. This means that 66.9% of the variation in purchasing decisions can be explained by brand trust, taste, and the influence of social media influencers, while the remainder is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. In conclusion, maintaining brand trust, ensuring consistent taste quality, and leveraging promotions through social media influencers remain important strategies in improving consumer purchasing decisions. Nasi Uduk Pemuda needs to continue to maintain and develop these three elements to remain competitive in an increasingly dynamic market.

This study analyzes the opportunities and challenges in implementing digital payment systems to enhance the productivity of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). In the era of growing digital transformation, the adoption of cashless transactions has become a crucial innovation to improve efficiency and competitiveness among MSME players. The findings indicate that the use of digital payment platforms such as QRIS, bank transfers, e-wallets, and card-based e-money offers several advantages, including faster payment processing, reduced risk of calculation errors, and the minimization of counterfeit money usage, which remains an issue in some regions. However, the implementation of digital payments still faces various obstacles on the ground. Certain sectors of MSMEs continue to rely heavily on cash transactions, especially in remote areas where internet connectivity is limited. Furthermore, many business owners still prefer conventional payment methods due to concerns over trust, security, and deeply rooted habits. Demographic factors also influence the level of digital payment adoption. Younger generations tend to be more adaptive to digital technologies, whereas older business owners are generally less familiar and comfortable with using digital devices. These findings suggest that in order to fully leverage the benefits of payment digitalization among MSMEs, strategic efforts are needed. These should include the improvement of digital infrastructure, widespread education and awareness programs, and the development of applications tailored to the specific needs and characteristics of each business sector. Collaboration between the government, financial institutions, and digital service providers is essential in creating an inclusive and user-friendly digital payment ecosystem. By addressing technical barriers and bridging digital literacy gaps, the implementation of digital payments holds significant potential to drive operational efficiency and sustainably boost the productivity of MSMEs.

This study aims to explore and understand the impact of various internal corporate governance and financial structure variables on firm value, specifically within the context of the Indonesian banking sector. The variables examined include company size, capital structure, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and the presence of independent commissioners. The study focuses on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period from 2022 to 2024. A quantitative research approach was employed, using purposive sampling to select banking firms that met the criteria for analysis. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to determine the individual and simultaneous influence of each variable on firm value. The empirical findings reveal that company size does not have a significant effect on firm value, indicating that larger asset bases or broader operations are not necessarily associated with higher market valuation in the banking sector. Conversely, capital structure—reflected by the proportion of debt to equity—has a positive and significant effect, suggesting that leverage, when managed efficiently, enhances firm value. Meanwhile, managerial ownership does not show a notable contribution to firm value, implying that insider ownership may not always align with shareholder interests. On the other hand, institutional ownership exerts a positive and significant influence, indicating that the presence of large, professional investors can enhance oversight and value creation. Finally, the presence of independent commissioners does not significantly impact firm value. Overall, the results highlight that, although not all governance variables have a direct individual influence, the five variables studied jointly have a significant effect on firm value. These findings have implications for corporate governance practices and financial decision-making in the banking sector, especially in emerging markets such as Indonesia.

This study explores the influence of information system quality, information technology sophistication, and personal technical capability on the effectiveness of Accounting Information Systems (AIS) in Village Credit Institutions (LPDs) in Jembrana Regency. The research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing a survey method. Questionnaires were distributed to 63 employees from 21 LPDs that have already implemented computerized AIS. The study focuses on assessing how these three independent variables contribute to the effectiveness of AIS in the LPDs. Multiple linear regression was employed for data analysis, allowing the researcher to determine the relationship between the independent variables and the effectiveness of AIS. The respondents were selected from LPDs that had successfully integrated technology into their accounting systems. The primary objective was to understand whether system quality, IT sophistication, and personal technical capability played a significant role in improving AIS performance in these institutions. The findings of the study indicate that all three independent variables—system quality, IT sophistication, and personal technical capability—positively influence the effectiveness of AIS. Specifically, high-quality systems, advanced IT infrastructure, and employees with strong technical skills were found to enhance the operational effectiveness of AIS. This underscores the importance of these factors in ensuring the smooth functioning of AIS in LPDs. As such, LPDs are encouraged to invest in improving system quality, upgrading IT systems, and enhancing the technical skills of their staff to optimize AIS performance. Overall, the study contributes to the understanding of how technological factors can be leveraged to improve accounting processes in financial institutions, particularly in rural settings like LPDs in Jembrana Regency.

Improving the quality of children's health is one of the main priorities in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in addressing stunting prevention in Indonesia. Stunting remains a serious challenge in public health development, especially among young children who suffer from chronic malnutrition. To tackle this issue, effective nutritional education is essential, especially for young mothers who play a central role in caregiving and determining their children's dietary intake. In line with the shift in information consumption patterns from conventional media to digital platforms, social media is becoming increasingly significant as a channel for health communication and education. One emerging phenomenon in this context is the rise of public figures from the medical profession actively sharing health-related content online, commonly referred to as “doctor influencers.” This study aims to analyze the digital communication strategies employed by doctor influencers, using the Instagram account @mizaafrizal, owned by Dr. Miza Afrizal, as a case study, focusing on how he educates young mothers about child nutrition. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, utilizing data collection techniques such as content observation, in-depth interviews, and literature review on digital communication and health promotion. The findings indicate that Dr. Miza employs a persuasive and interactive communication strategy through the use of humanistic language, visually engaging content, and scientifically supported information in each post. He also leverages Instagram features like reels, stories, and the comment section to establish two-way communication with his followers. Dr. Miza’s credibility as a pediatrician enhances the reception of his messages. His approachable, clear, and educational style of delivery successfully captures the attention of young mothers and increases their understanding of the importance of nutrition in early childhood development. These findings highlight the influential role of doctor influencers as change agents in raising public awareness about child nutrition. Moreover, they contribute positively to digital-based health promotion efforts in Indonesia, showing the potential of social media as a powerful platform to support national health initiatives.  

Gojek, as a leading on-demand service company in Indonesia, continues to leverage technological advancements and shifts in consumer behavior from offline to online shopping. One of its flagship services, GoFood, faces challenges in maintaining its market position and increasing the number of transactions due to increasing competition in the food delivery industry. This study aims to explain the role of positive emotions in mediating the influence of promotional appeals on impulse purchases among GoFood customers. This study uses consumer behavior theory and the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) model as a theoretical basis. The study was conducted in Denpasar City, involving 180 respondents through a survey method using questionnaires distributed offline and online. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling with a purposive sampling approach. Data analysis was carried out using path analysis, classical assumption tests, Sobel tests, and Variance Accounted For (VAF) tests with the help of SPSS 25 software. The results showed that all proposed hypotheses were accepted. Promotional appeals had a positive and significant effect on impulse purchases. Promotional appeals also had a positive and significant effect on positive emotions. Furthermore, positive emotions also significantly influence impulse buying. Positive emotions have been shown to partially mediate the effect of promotional appeal on impulse buying. Practical implications of this research suggest that GoFood optimize attractive discount promotions by providing users with greater flexibility and control to evoke positive emotions that encourage impulse buying behavior. Discount promotions should be designed creatively and personally, using engaging visuals, persuasive language, and offers tailored to customer preferences.

This study examines the influence of store atmosphere, service quality, word of mouth (WOM), and price perception on consumer purchasing decisions at Cahya Busana's Canggu branch, a local Balinese MSME specializing in high-quality traditional Balinese clothing for men, women, and children. With an increasing demand for traditional attire, understanding the factors that influence consumer decisions is vital for business growth. The study targeted consumers who had purchased traditional clothing at the Canggu branch, using non-probability sampling to select 110 respondents. The data analysis was conducted through multiple linear regression, assisted by SPSS software, to evaluate the relationship between the independent variables (store atmosphere, service quality, WOM, and price perception) and the dependent variable (consumer purchase decisions). The findings indicate that all four factors—store atmosphere, service quality, WOM, and price perception—positively and significantly impact consumers’ purchasing decisions. Specifically, a pleasant store atmosphere, high-quality service, positive word-of-mouth recommendations, and favorable price perception were found to enhance consumers' likelihood of purchasing traditional Balinese clothing. The results suggest that MSMEs, particularly in the traditional clothing sector, can leverage these factors to boost consumer confidence and drive sales. This study contributes valuable insights for businesses aiming to improve their purchasing processes by focusing on these key variables to increase consumer satisfaction and decision-making. By understanding these influences, Cahya Busana and similar businesses can optimize their strategies to attract and retain customers, ultimately improving their market position.

 Tax avoidance is a legal strategy used by companies to minimize their tax burden by exploiting loopholes in tax regulations without violating the law. Although not illegal, this practice may reduce a company’s tax contribution to the state and pose reputational risks. This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability (ROA), leverage (DER), and capital intensity (FAT) on tax avoidance, measured using the Current Effective Tax Rate (CETR), in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. This research adopts a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis processed using SPSS. The sample was selected using purposive sampling. The results show that all three independent variables have a significant effect on tax avoidance, supported by significance values below the critical threshold and t-values exceeding the t-table, leading to the acceptance of H1, H2, and H3.

This study aims to determine the effect of company size, company age, profitability, and leverage on the level of website-based corporate information disclosure.

Data collection in this study used a content analysis method and data processing using the SPSS 27 application using multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that search size has a positive and significant effect on the level of website-based corporate information disclosure. Meanwhile, the other three independent variables, namely company age, profitability, and leverage, do not have a significant effect on the level of website-based corporate information dissemination.

This study aims to determine how much influence digital marketing strategies (content marketing, affiliate marketing and flash sales) have in encouraging impulsive purchasing behavior in Gen Z. The population of this study consists of all Generation Z TikTok users in Indonesia, with an unknown total number. The research method employed is a quantitative approach using a survey of 100 respondents selected through convenience sampling. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with inferential analysis or classical assumption testing. The results show that, partially, all three independent variables have a positive and significant effect on impulsive buying. Flash Sales have the greatest effectiveness influence, with a multiple regression coefficient value of 0.275. Although Flash Sales are statistically the most effective, descriptive analysis results indicate that affiliate marketing has the highest level of effectiveness based on the respondents’ average score of 21.69. Therefore, an optimal digital marketing strategy can leverage all three methods to enhance impulsive buying behavior.

Firm value is a crucial indicator that provides information to investors for making investment decisions. Today, investors also consider a company’s commitment to environmental issues, especially in the energy sector, which significantly contributes to carbon emissions. This study aims to empirically examine the effect of carbon emission disclosure and green investment on firm value. The theoretical framework employed includes signaling theory and legitimacy theory. Firm value is measured using the Tobin’s Q ratio. Carbon emission disclosure is measured through content analysis based on the GRI 305 standards, while green investment is measured using the PROPER rating issued by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. This study also includes three control variables: firm size, leverage, and profitability. The analytical method used is multiple linear regression, with secondary quantitative data collected from companies’ annual reports and sustainability reports. The sample consists of 69 companies with a total of 271 observations. The findings reveal that carbon emission disclosure has a positive effect on firm value, while green investment does not have a significant effect on firm value. This research is expected to contribute to the development of signaling and legitimacy theories and serve as a practical reference for investors in considering environmental aspects when making investment decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effects of Carbon Emission Disclosure (CED), liquidity, and leverage on firm value, as well as to examine the role of stock returns as a mediating variable. A quantitative research method was employed, utilizing multiple regression and path analysis on data from companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, particularly within sectors related to environmental issues. The findings indicate that CED significantly affects firm value both directly and indirectly through stock returns. Stock returns also demonstrate a significant positive effect on firm value. In contrast, liquidity and leverage do not exhibit significant effects, either directly or when mediated by stock returns. These results suggest that investors respond more to non-financial information, especially sustainability disclosures, than to traditional financial indicators. This study implies that companies should enhance the quality of their CED reporting as a strategy to build investor trust and sustain long-term firm value. This study is limited to companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, focusing mainly on environmentally related sectors, which may limit the generalizability of the results to other industries or geographical contexts. Moreover, reliance on quantitative methods and secondary data may overlook qualitative perceptions of stakeholders. Future research is recommended to expand sampling across diverse industries and regions to validate these findings further. Incorporating qualitative approaches could provide deeper insights into investor reactions to carbon emission disclosures. Companies are encouraged to adopt more transparent and standardized carbon emission disclosure practices and integrate sustainability into their broader strategic management to effectively enhance firm value.

Firm value is the investors’ perception of a company's success in maximizing shareholder wealth, which is reflected through its stock price. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR), investment decisions, and profitability on firm value in the consumer non-cyclicals sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2023 period, with leverage as a control variable. This study employs a quantitative approach with an associative research design. The sample consists of 20 companies selected using purposive sampling, resulting in a total of 60 observations over three years. The analysis technique used is multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS software. The results show that CSR and profitability have a positive affect on firm value, while investment decisions do not have an affect. This study implies that companies need to enhance CSR practices and profitability to improve their firm value in the eyes of investors. Additionally, this study contributes theoretically to the development of literature on the factors influencing firm value and can serve as a reference for future research.

Underpricing continues to be a prominent issue within the Indonesian capital market, as many firms conducting an Initial Public Offering (IPO) tend to set initial share prices below their subsequent market value. This research investigates the moderating role of underwriter reputation in the relationship between profitability, financial leverage, and earnings per share (EPS) on IPO underpricing among firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Utilizing a purposive sampling technique, the study analyzes data from 176 companies. The data are processed using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the help of STATA software. The findings reveal that profitability, measured by return on assets (ROA), significantly influences underpricing. In contrast, financial leverage (proxied by the debt-to-equity ratio) and EPS show no statistically significant effect. Moreover, underwriter reputation is shown to moderate the negative impact of both ROA and EPS on underpricing but does not moderate the relationship between the debt-to-equity ratio and underpricing. These results offer valuable insights into signaling theory and information asymmetry, highlighting the importance of firm fundamentals and intermediary reputation in IPO pricing strategies. The study contributes to a better understanding for investors, issuers, and regulators involved in the IPO decision-making process.

Firm value refers to the price a prospective buyer is willing to pay if the company were to be sold. It serves as an economic metric to assess the overall financial position of a company, reflecting how valuable the firm is in terms of its assets, earnings, growth potential, and other relevant factors. This study aims to analyze dividend policy as a moderating variable in the relationship between liquidity, leverage, and firm value among organizations listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2023. The data employed in this study is secondary information sourced from annual financial reviews published through the reliable IDX website or the companies’ individual websites. Liquidity is estimated using the current ratio, leverage is estimated using the debt-to-equity ratio, firm value is calculated using the price-to-book value, and dividend policy is calculated using the dividend payout ratio. The sample consists of 248 companies, selected using the Slovin sampling technique. The findings reveal that liquidity and leverage have no impact on firm value. Dividend policy does not slight the impact of liquidity on firm value. However, dividend policy does moderate the effect of leverage on firm value.
